8 Celebrity Couples Who Stayed Together Through Cheating Scandals & Are Stronger Than Ever

All too often, living your life in the public eye means that every facet of your life, from your appearance to your relationships to your family dynamic, next career move, and more, are all public knowledge. It can sometimes be difficult to keep things behind closed doors, no matter your reason for wanting to do so. The arguable upside to that is that when something good happens in your life, the world celebrates with you, but that also means that when something devastating or embarrassing happens, the whole world knows that too. The celebrities who stayed together through cheating scandals are well-acquainted with that side of fame, having to navigate not only the infidelity itself, but also the process of rebuilding their relationship in the spotlight.

Trying to determine how to move forward after a cheating scandal can be difficult and heart-wrenching enough as it is without having to endure the whole world knowing all about it. Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in celebrity gossip stories and forget that the sequence of events the stories are relaying are about real people, but even with all of that added relationship stress and pressure, some celebrity couples still find a way to move forward together.
